abstract
aSummary: Genomewide position-specific scores, such as those estimating conservation, constraint, fitness or mutation tolerance, are ubiquitous in current genome analyses. The diversity of sources and formats of these scores, as well as their size, increase the burden to use them. We present GenomicScores, a Bioconductor package that provides efficient storage and seamless access of genomewide position-specific scores from R, facilitating their use in genome analysis workflows. Availability and implementation: GenomicScores is implemented in R and available at https://bioconductor.org/packages/GenomicScores under the open source 'Artistic-2.0' license.
